Taking a break after our Community Walk.

 

 

Pre-Kindergarten class created beautiful Holiday Cards to warm the hearts around East Elementary School. We went door to door and did our best to slip the cards into mailboxes. As a treat some of the neighbors come out, and we were lucky enough to hand the cards to them in person. We had a wonderful time walking as a group! What a great way to start our Holidays!
